Tehran, YJC. Iranian negotiator says Iran cannot enter more serious discussions on its nuclear program unless assured of unanimous talk by the Western side.



"So far as trust is not renewed we will not be able to continue the talks,” asserted the Iranian nuclear negotiator Abbas Araqchi.

The Deputy Foreign Minister speaking in a press conference in Geneva on Thursday morning added "We have not yet started serious talks on the text. As long as we are not confident that the negotiation procedures are healthy and result-bound, we will not settle for the composition of the text.”

He maintained that enrichment is one of the most sensitive and influential parts of the negotiations and added "We will not consider any agreement which does not consider enrichment for Iran from its beginning to the end.”

He added "Enrichment must be included in any agreement made; it must be both continued in practice and included in the text, and it must be respected.”
